As the third degree of higher education, the doctoral program in the specialty "Technology and processing of plastics and composite materials" includes individual training and experimental work on current scientific and applied tasks in the field of polymer materials for technical purposes. Attention is focused on modern and ecologically sustainable technologies for processing and obtaining quality engineering products. Attention is also paid to modern approaches in the design of products and structural elements from advanced ultra light and strong materials.
The training covers the full cycle from assessment of technical requirements and design to the selection of suitable materials and production methods for the implementation of specific structural and technological tasks.
The results of the scientific research activity are widely accepted in authoritative specialized publications, reflected in prestigious international forums.
The training enriches and builds the knowledge and practical skills needed for an innovative approach to solving complex problems - both from science and business practice. It can be noted that the related industry in the country has overcome the crisis of recent years and is developing more and more dynamically. Accordingly, the demand for highly qualified personnel is increasing rapidly. That is why the dissertation topics in the department are formulated on real problems dictated by the needs of industry. Doctoral students are encouraged to direct their research activities in promising directions that would also favor their own realization after the successful completion of this higher degree of their academic training at the Technical University - Sofia.
Reviews of the scientific and practical contribution of the dissertations were received not only from Bulgarian institutes and industrial enterprises, but also from leading scientific organizations and companies abroad.
